The Rajya Sabha on Thursday passed the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Bill, 2025, amid repeated disruptions from opposition members. The legislation, which was passed by the Lok Sabha yesterday, seeks to regulate online gaming while also banning all forms of online money-based gaming, whether based on skill, chance, or a combination of both.
The passage of the bill triggered vocal protests from opposition members, who raised concerns over its broad provisions and potential impact on online skill gaming platforms. Despite the ruckus, the government pressed forward, emphasizing the need to curb online gambling and protect citizens from potential financial losses.
